XII
Two times had the last rays of closing day shone
Upon the great havoc on battle field done;
And the sun, as it bcamed DER the blue mountain
crest,
Looked timidly down from the rose tinted West
With force undated the conflict was waged,
The battles, tremendous, successfully ragged;
When the shadows of night on the place throw
veil,
To picture it, words most impressive must fail
In the gloom of the night tho two armies have
paused;
There's lull in the tumut and clamorthey caused.
They met like the pillows by furious winds dashed,
And great cannon roared, and the keen sahers
clashed.
Anon does the moon seem her face to enshroud
And to hide in the veil of thin, floating cloud;
And each twinkle of star in its station on high,
Seems token of grief in the lmtless sky.
The battle-scarr'd warrior, weary and worn,
Reposes in sleep till return of the morn;
And there, ere the day brings the slaughter again,
The living lies down by the side of the slain.
On a low NOISY mound he is resting his heads
Where the white marble shafts mark the place of
the dead.
There, there in the light of the pale lunar beam,
Death holds DER his kingdom dominion supreme.
Then what were the dreams fitting over his mind,
When the soldier to rest his arms has reclined?
Ofthe coil of his life oh, how slender the thread
That hangs on the verge of combat so dread
oh, transient his life, like the foam on the crest
of the wave that is whirled, finding never a rest,
Or drop in the cascade that sparkles so bright,
Then vanishes, lost in the flood from our sight
The angel ofdestiny, standing sublime,
Is moving the hand on the dial of Time
The time when the actions impending decide
The fate of a nation that foes would divide.
Undauntcd defiant. both armies await
The onset of battle, the final one great,
When the third day the fight, like the roar of thu
storm,
Is moving the land with the widest alarm.
Some of the men during the night lay down up
on their arms among the tombs of the cemetery.

fearing into the dining
: face all scratched up and
her hair full of coal ashes, and when asked
what. was the matter, answered: "Och
that murtherin blagyard av goat, an its
amost kilt that l am. | was afther empty
ing a pail of ashes, and as | was stoopin
down to knock the ashes out Of the pail
sumthin' sthruck me in the rear, an howly
mither thought it was locomotive that
was afther runnin' over me shure, till l
looked around and see that divilish goat,
standin' on bis hind feet and dancin like
all possessed" Then we readily came to
the conclusion that the goat had butted her.
We were not long in finding out that
this was ruling passion under certain cir
cumstances Said circumstances were when
a person assumed STOPPING posture was
out in the yard one day examining what
the goat had left of choice pear tree that
l had set out in the spring. l was hum
ming over that popular opera of ''The Girl
[ Left Behind Me" when the goat struck
me on the north side on the brow of my
pants, and knocked me clean through my
hat and into large monthly rose bush.
Part of my cigar went down my throat, and
the lighted end burnt my nose. | scram-
bled to my feet as quick as possible, having
determined to annihilate that goat, but
when | looked at him he was standing on
his hind feet, dancing around and gesturing
with his forelegs in manner that l could
not help laughing at | noticed that this
was peculiar habit he had of acting after
having butted some one.
After nearly all of the family had come
in contact with his head, concluded to try
and break him, but failed, so | gave him to
our milkman. He undertook to lead him
home with rope, but before he got him
out Of town it cost him S25 for damages
done by the goat. He first tackled an apple
woman, and knocked her and her wares
into the gutter. Thepfe paralyzed boot
black by butting him through a drug store
windowqkook width out of lady's silk
dress, Knocked policeman into tub of
eggs, butted an Indian cigar sign into the
street, eat up part of a rubber coat hanging
in front of clothier's, created panic in an
auction room by butting over the dry goods
box that the auctioneer was standing on,
and when last seen he was making meal
of circus bills that had just been posted.
I don't know whether the milkman ever
got him home, nor don't care. lam only
glad that I got rid of him, and yet while
he was with us we always had our family
butter. This little pun makes its debut for
the first time, and if it doesn't suit all
would say to those who wish to wreak ven
geance | refer them to friend of mine by
the name of Sullivan, whose Office is open
at all hours to attend to unwreaked ven
geance, SO call on him before purchasing
elsewhere.

I have read articles at different times on
the goat, but always thought them to be
exaggerations Since having practical ex-
periencc with ozo, aud ha5;ag him directly
under nv observation, where l could study
his habits and nature, though confess at
times he had me at great disadvantage,
and at such times 1 can't say that | could
give an unbiased opinion. Ipaid $3.50 for
the goat l owned, and thought l had a
bargain. The man bought him from said
